The WMS software development team is excited about the release of WMS 10.0! This page lists the exciting new features that have been added to WMS 10.0.

What's new in WMS 10.0

GSSHA Interface and Model Updates

Model Calibration Updates

The newest version of GSSHA supports PEST-style automated calibration methods. WMS 10.0 has an interface to these automated calibration methods in GSSHA. More information about automated calibration in GSSHA using WMS 10.0 is located here.

Depth Varying Overland Flow Roughness

The newest version of GSSHA has a mapping table that supports a depth-varying overland flow roughness exponent. This parameter is used in addition to the roughness mapping table. Without the addition of this table, a default exponent of 0.0 is used, which means the roughness does not change with overland flow depth.
